Leon Hall and Joe Paterno. Is this a joke??

Leon Hall and Joe Paterno. Is this a joke??

Well let's give them a little credit. Two Buckeyes and zero Domers. Not a completely fanciful list, at least until they get to JoePa - who's team could have a serious drop-off this year.

 

[Oneshot]

I don't care...

Just makes it sweeter to hear "Teddy Ginn just burned pre-season All American Leon Hall on his way to his 27th touchdown of the year!"

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Congrats Troy and Teddy!

Two Glenville guys in Los Angeles for the Playboy All-American team, gotta love that.

 

[Captain Hindsight]

I'm very pleased to see Teddy and Troy on the list, and EXTREMELY PLEASED to not see Brady Quinn on the list.

it's simple!! it's a conspiracy! it's all about getting joe pa to the playboy all american party and juggle some boobs in front of him till he dies of heart attack! hahahahah.....

:osu:

osu.edu ROCKS!!!

 

[AJHawkfan]

I'm very pleased to see Teddy and Troy on the list, and EXTREMELY PLEASED to not see Brady Quinn on the list.

No doubt! This will be one of the few media outlets to pick Troy over Brady Quinn.

 

[HilmerJ]

Where in the hell is Jimmy Clausen?

 

[rocketman]

Seriously, didn't he already win the Heisman?

 

[ntd]

Where in the hell is Jimmy Clausen?

Playboy has had good luck in the past with their picks, lets hope that continues

 

[stxbuck]

Anyone who thinks Joel Filani(whom I never heard of) and Garrett Wolfe are better than Calvin Johnson or Marshawn Lynch needs their heads checked....the other picks, aside from Leon Hall, seem pretty good.

 

[ScarletBlood31]

I'm very pleased to see Teddy and Troy on the list, and EXTREMELY PLEASED to not see Brady Quinn on the list.

You can say that again.

 

[RugbyBuck]

We'll have a couple more on the list by the end of the season.

 

[Captain Hindsight]

You can say that again.

I'm very pleased to see Teddy and Troy on the list, and EXTREMELY PLEASED to not see Brady Quinn on the list. :tongue2:
